Nachos with a side of AK-47s

So. Last night I had my first Mexican movie experience. Some weird kids Christmas movie called Unaccompanied Minors... at least I think thats what it was called. It had that little black dude from that TV show on channel 10 in it. But yeah... I didn't really understand much, but it was a pretty straightforward movie. Easy to follow. It had Fez from That 70s Show in it... but he wasn't very funny this time.

At the movies I tried authentic Mexican nachos... and they were absolutely disgusting. Its corn chips in this really gross melted cheese that is so runny its practically soup. They put chilis on the side, but they're way too hot for me. Nyeah. I like Australian nachos better. Although these were from the movies, so maybe restaurant nachos would be nicer.

I have come up with a theory on why there seems to be a sever lacking in laws/law enforcement in Mexico. I figure that the government want people to die. I mean think about it... Mexico City is the most densely populated place on earth and Mexico's population is out of control, even though its population is steadily declining. And thats where my theory comes in. I think that all this lack of rules etc is a way of trying to kill off as many people as possible to get the population under control. By making drugs legal the government is encouraging drug abuse, hence encouraging lethal overdoses. Also, the teenage smoking epidemic... Get all the young people to smoke so that in 30-40 years time they all get cancer and die or go sterile. And the reason for no seatbelts and the allowance of drink driving? They don't care if people die. Hell, they want them to die.

I'm pretty sure that you all know not to take my paranoid conspiracy ravings seriously by now, but think about it... Its plausible. Oh... please keep in mind that I just read Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, which is full of paranoid ramblings and possible inspiration for that last paragraph.

Hmmm what else? Um today I saw a cop. Like I have seen lots of cops around, but they've all been driving. Today I saw a few cops standing around having a chat and a smoke and guess what they were packing? Not only your standard handcuffs, baton, pistol etc. but an AK-47. I'm pretty sure that these days most people know what an AK-47 is, but if any of you don't know its one of these. It was pretty scary. They must be expecting some pretty heavy stuff if normal cops are carrying those things around.

Yeah. Mexico is a pretty awesome place... But its very different. And kind of scary... But yeah. Awesome. I wonder I there is anyone I can sue if i get lung cancer while I'm over here, because I think theres a high probability that I'll catch some sort of sickness from all this people smoking...
